Sweet land of liberty,

Let all that breathe partake;
Let rocks their silence break,
The sound prolong.

Author of liberty,
To thee we sing:
Long may our land be bright
With freedom's holy light;
Protect us by thy might,

Be thine a nobler care

Fair Freedom's open door.

Grand memories on thee shine;
The blood of pilgrim nations
Commingled flows in thine.

Justice thy diadem;
And on thy shining forehead
Be peace the crowning gem.

And, healed of our diseases,
The tempter's power withstand.

Enslaves and leads astray,
Do Thou in loving-kindness
Proclaim Thy gospel day;
Till all the tribes and races
That dwell in this fair land,
Adorned with Christian graces,
Within Thy courts shall stand.

And how it flies today,
In your land and my land,
And half the world away;
Rose-red and blood-red
Its stripes forever gleam,
Snow-white and soul-white,
The good forefather’s dream.
Sky-blue and true-blue,
With stars to shine aright;
The gloried guidon of the day,
A shelter in the night.
2 Your flag and my flag,
O, how much it holds
Your land and my land
Secure within its folds!
Your heart and my heart
Beat quicker at the sight,
Snow-kissed and wind-toss’d,
Red and blue and white,–
The one flag, the great flag,
The flag for me and you,
Glorified all else beside,
The red and white and blue.
3 Your flag and my flag,
To ev’ry star and stripe
The drums beat as hearts beat,
And pipers shrilly pipe.
Your flag and my flag,
A blessing in the sky;
Your hope and my hope,
It never hid a lie.
Home-land and far land,
And half the world around,
Old Glory hears the great salute,
And flutters to the sound. Languages: English Tune Title: OUR FLAG

Love thy hills and plains and streams;
Love the flag that floats above thee,
Radiant in the sunlight’s beams.
Dear to us thy splendid story,
Told far over land and sea;
Proud are we of all thy glory,
Laws, and peace, and liberty.
2 Peoples, from afar this seeing,
Throng from ev’ry clime and race,
Bondage and oppression fleeing,
Longing for thy wealth and peace.
Give to these the great salvation,
Bring them truth and joy and life;
Save from sin and all temptation;
Free from lust and hate and strife.
3 Then this land of song and story
Shall from bonds of sin be free;
Then our flag, the dear “Old Glory,”
Dearer still to all will be.
Then our country’s future ages,
As the years shall take their flight,
Grand will be on hist’ry’s pages,
Till He reigns, whose is the right. Tune Title: [Land of freedom, how we love thee]

Hymnal: Christian Hymns #217 (1898) Meter: 6.6.4.6.6.6.4 Topics: Our Country Lyrics: 1 God bless our native land!
May heaven's protecting hand
Still guard our shore;
May peace her power extend,
Foe be transformed to friend,
And all our rights depend
On war no more.
2 May just and righteous laws
Uphold the public cause
And bless us all.
Home of the brave and free,
Fair land of liberty,
We pray that still on thee
God's blessing fall.
3 And not this land alone,
But be Thy mercies known
From shore to shore,
Lord, make the nations see
That men should brothers be,
And form one family,
The wide world o'er. Languages: English Tune Title: AMERICA

The midnight snare, the silent foe;
And when the battle thunders loud,
Still guide us in its moving cloud.

We lift the starry flag on high
